NCT01496989

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of multiantigen HIV (HIV-MAG) plasmid DNA (pDNA) vaccine co-administered with recombinant human IL-12 pDNA (GENEVAX® IL-12) followed or preceded by recombinant Ad35-GRIN/ENV HIV vaccine in low-risk for HIV-uninfected healthy adults.
